Privacy Policy · Grass Break

Grass Break is designed to be private by default. The two most sensitive things it touches — your camera and your Screen Time data — are processed entirely on your device and are never uploaded to us or anyone else.

What stays on your device

Camera photos: When you take a photo to verify grass or greenery, the image is analyzed on your device to check for vegetation. It is not uploaded, stored on a server, or shared with us. If the check passes, the photo is saved locally in your Log (along with a timestamp and optional location). Failed checks are not saved. You can delete Log entries any time. The Log keeps a capped number of recent captures on your device.

Location: If you allow location access, Grass Break tags passed captures with where you took them so your Log can show place names. Location data stays on your device and is never uploaded to us.

Screen Time & app usage: Grass Break uses Apple's Family Controls, Device Activity, and Managed Settings frameworks to know when to prompt you and to shield apps. This activity data stays on your device under Apple's control and is never transmitted to us.

Notifications: If you schedule a Timer Lock or enable related reminders, Grass Break schedules local notifications on your device. These are optional and can be turned off in the app or in iOS Settings. We do not send push notifications from a server.

iCloud backup (optional): If you're signed into iCloud, Grass Break can store a copy of your settings, streak, skip balance, and Log in your private iCloud account (via Apple's CloudKit). This helps restore your data if you delete and reinstall the app. Photos and location in your Log stay in your iCloud — they are not uploaded to Grass Break's servers. Screen Time permissions and which apps you lock cannot be restored automatically; you'll re-enable those after reinstall.

Information handled by our service providers

To run subscriptions and purchases, limited data is processed by trusted providers acting on our behalf:

Apple processes all payments through In-App Purchase. We never see your card or full payment details.
RevenueCat helps us manage subscriptions and unlock features. It receives a random, app-generated identifier plus purchase and device/OS information needed to validate your subscription. It does not receive your name, email, camera photos, or Screen Time data.

Diagnostics

We do not collect crash reports, usage analytics, or other diagnostics off your device today. During development, the app may write local debug logs (for example metering diagnostics in DEBUG builds) that stay on your device and are not uploaded.

What we don't do

We don't sell or rent your personal data to anyone.
We don't upload your photos or Screen Time data.
We don't build advertising profiles about you.

Children

Grass Break is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

Your choices

You can revoke camera, location, notification, or Screen Time permissions any time in the iOS Settings app. You can delete Log entries in the app. You can manage or cancel your subscription in Settings › Apple ID › Subscriptions.

Changes

If this policy changes, we'll update this page and the "Last updated" date above.
